Ghost Train Boogie - Vernon & The G.i.

Ghost Train Boogie

Vernon & The G.i.'s

(Pete Gammon, BILLY GOAT BILL004, 1979)

The old metal car was standing on track
Four hep cats were sittin' in the back
Me and my girl were waitin' up front
For the old metal car to start with a bump

[Chorus]
Ghost train, ghost train a boogie
Ghost train, ghost train a boogie
Ghost train, ghost train a boogie
Reelin' in a breakdown zone

Well, the car starts a-movin' with a jerk and a bump
It rattles over tracks, it hits over a thump
Everythings so dark that I can hardly see
My girl sure hanging on to me

Well, I've been working hard every day
Spent my money, it's fun my way
No hepcats cats can understand me
Just do the ghost train boogie with me

Well, I've been working hard every day
Spent my money ,it's fun my way
No hepcats cats can understand me
Just do the ghost train boogie with me

Well, I've been working hard every day
Spent my money, it's fun my way
No hepcats cats can understand me
Just do the ghost train boogie with me

Now this is the end of the ride for you
The fun's all over, it's was worth it two
Just you wait till I get back here
I'll be rockin' and rollin' on the rails of fear
